A study conducted out of the US in 2017, it found that romantically involved individuals are more likely to engage in infidelity or want to pursue casual sex. Gender also may play a role in a person's curiosity around non-monogamy and how that fits in with their broader perspectives on romance and intimacy. There is something else that I think needs further examining when we discuss open relationships, and that is the influence of the LGBTQIA plus community on our increasing openness and receptiveness towards non-Monogamy as a society. A new report that came out in Australia and also the US suggests that about a third of gay men are in open relationships.
